Tatavara, Mughal, Amir Morya, and wise Gupta king These are names that have left a profound mark on this earth. There was also a period in the shared history of India and Pakistan when they were united. The more mysterious it is, the more full of secrets it becomes. We are talking about the civilization of the Indus Valley. This is the oldest civilization in Southeast Asia. The cities beautifully situated and the large buildings Today, experts have drawn attention to themselves. Even today, great scholars continue to debate this issue. Who were these people, after all? from 3300 BCE onwards By 1300 BCE The people of the Indus Valley had established a splendid world. That which is very important to understand What exactly was the Indus Valley? How were the people who lived here? What was their way of life like? In today's video, we will find answers to all these questions. Friends, if you like such mysteries of history If we look at the ancient sages This civilization was spread across the northwestern regions of South Asia. The traces of this can be found in present-day Rajasthan and Gujarat, India. And are found in a very large part of Pakistan. It includes large cities such as Harappa and Mohenjo-daro. This civilization spanned an area of approximately twelve thousand square kilometers. Where the jungle, desert, and grasslands all existed together Because of the different seasons, the people here had become very wise. They knew smart agricultural techniques that allowed different crops to be grown in the same field. It is believed that this culture originated from the ancient settlements of the Stone Age. as in the Balochistan region of Pakistan, Mehragarh It was here that the first settlers began to reside. But the new experts state that when these peaks were at their greatest heights Even then, most people of the Indus Valley lived in villages. Around 7,000 BCE, settlements like Mehrgarh began to emerge. For the next few thousand years, new methods of trade and agriculture Transformed these small towns into big cities The special thing was that on one hand, Shandar City was becoming a magnificent metropolis. On the other hand, just like today, rural and nomadic people as well They were remaining with their simplicity. Around 5000 BC, in the northwestern region Their large, distinctive clay pots had become famous for their unique style. In history, it is known as the "Dawn." When settlements grew large enough to take on the form of cities And they with the surrounding villages A robust network for the exchange of goods has been established. During this time, another major change occurred. People began choosing their special tasks or professions. Like some people started making only clay vessels So they began preparing some valuable pearls Before this, people in the villages were almost They had done every task themselves, to some extent. But now the work had been divided. This change came swiftly in the cities. But life in the villages continued just as simply as before. They had begun trading with the cities. Finally in 3300 BCE These settlements have turned into very large cities. And it was here that the era began, which experts refer to the early Harappan period Like this video if you've watched it this far Don't forget, and let us know in the comments They became large cities even in the early Harappan period. For whom the Indus Valley Civilization It is known all over the world today. Separate areas were designated for artisans here. Where they used to prepare delicious dishes These cities were quite far from each other. Yet still through trade and culture They were deeply connected with each other. Among the main cities of this civilization were Harappa, Mohan Juddad, Rakhigadi Names such as Ganneri and Dholavira were included Due to these very cities Indus Valley Civilization at the beginning of the 20th century Mashoor happened during the excavation. The address of these mysterious buildings has been discovered. In addition to large cities, there are also many small towns. Mashoor were renowned for their excellent craftsmanship. It seems like this entire period has been... As if the entire region was advancing together as one. Where cities have awakened special craftsmen And through trade Tied everyone together in a single line. During this period, the art and artifacts of the Sindhu Valley It began to show a similar shine in the method of creation. And the goods too, compared to before Became heavier than a certain number of kilograms After the initial phase, the matchday hurdle period arrived. 2600 B.C.E. to 1900 B.C.E. It was the most golden era of this civilization. Progress of the Sindhu Valley during this period The sky was falling. The people here are precious pearls. Beautiful clay sculptures The people of Sindu Valley were very hardworking. They promote their culture They were always ready to create new things. An idea of their advancement You can realize this from now on Masó Putamia, located thousands of miles away In the old records, the name Meluha A mention is made of a wealthy state which Only those who are knowledgeable consider Sindhu Valley to be the true one. In fact, Sindhu Valley was a major one during those times. The Indostrel area was where thousands Kārikar used to make things for comfort and ease. And they used to send them abroad. Astonished. The point is that during this period of progress Some places like Gujarat have their own ancient Her identity faded away, and she became completely... that perhaps some areas had been occupied But we cannot say anything about it without a claim. Yet this time brings new discoveries and trade It was the pride of the village, where the cows grazed. The people of the city and the refugees joined together They were forming a magnificent culture. I at different times of the year They cultivated different crops and tilled the soil. To maintain its strength, keep the ground They would also give breaks in between. This method Even today, many farmers cultivate what is shown. It is remarkable how wise the farmer was at that time. And they were modern. Some people apart from the farmers. The food was bad, going from one place to another. They kept wandering around. Although we were with them I don't know much about it, but I accept it. It goes that they are between villages and towns. They used to do the essential work of delivering goods. But the true identity of the Indus Valley They were his large eyes, unique in their own way. Even today, due to craftsmanship and planning They astonish the world. Every city's She had a separate hub that set her apart from others. It used to make it special. For example A large fortress and a bathing area in Mohenjo-daro It was a great thing for him. So that's the same Dholo. Virā was renowned for his vast port. Ancient Indus cities were often divided into separate parts We were divided. These special areas Perhaps high-ranking officials or skilled craftsmen were made for staying. These parts There were also some files containing goods-related information. They kept an eye on its formation and quality. There are many seals or stamps found there. Those who perhaps use it for goods It was done as a guarantee of authenticity. As in today's era, Medin India is stagnant It happens in other areas of the city. Special items were made, such as muslin. Cataracts, sea beads, and clay The utensils that people use for eating food They used to live. The cities of the Indus Valley There was another amazing thing about them It distinguished itself from Egypt and Mesopotamia. Where in those civilizations there were large buildings It was reserved only for kings or priests. There, the large buildings of Sindhu Valley Drainage and cleaning of water there The arrangement was so impressive that The entire population of the city could use it. Altogether, these are the Sindu Valley Raw materials from the city and surrounding areas They were calling, and then from them They used to make such beautiful things Who is thousands of miles away in Messa It was sent as far as Potamia. The city and the village were incomplete without each other. They used to give grain to the villages. And in return, Shehr sent them ready-made goods. The village was the foundation of this entire culture. While Shehar were such places Where people used to meet each other and celebrate festivals. Now let's talk about the trade of the Indus Valley. Perhaps their greatest success. Within this civilization A vast web of trade had spread everywhere. Places like Chauri Chaura A precious blue stone Lapis lazuli was imported. This valuable merchandise used to reach major cities first. There, craftsmen make new ones from them. They used to make beautiful items, which were then sold far and wide. In reality, the things from the Indus Valley Transcend your limits From the plains of the Ganges It had reached as far as Mesopotamia. To ensure that the rope does not slip How large was the Indian trade network? Ah, a Sindhi sailor With the person who pilots the boat Let us embark on a fictional journey. This merchant in his ship The finest goods from every part of the Indus Civilization have been gathered together. Silver bangles from Daula Vira, Mohan from Jodhpur with shiny pearls And precious blue stones from Harappa She is ready for her final journey. and at the front part of the ship Standing up, facing west. He starts his journey then When the monsoon winds blow toward the west. It flows out from Dhaulawira. And along Iran's shores today It moves forward, pausing in small towns along the way. Finally, the Gulf of Persia comes into view. Where he stops to borrow goods. He spends the entire winter there. And waits for the change of monsoon winds. He lives in those areas of the city. Where his own country's business partners stay. As soon as the winds change The precious goods from the West He turns back toward the Indus Valley. This fictional story shows us How did the people of the Indus Valley Your culture along with the entire world And shared thoughts. The influence of the Indus Civilization was very deep along the Persian Gulf. Present in Bahrain today Chota Nagpur Region He was a major buyer of goods from the Indus Valley. Like our fictional sailor Many traders would stop there to avoid the monsoon. Or perhaps there The people of the Indus Valley have settled permanently. And may your ancestral lineage always remain first. Tell us in the comments whether you knew this That our ancestors were such great players of the sea? Now let's talk about the Indus Valley Lifestyle and culture. But this task is a bit difficult because We have written about them. The early excavators of Hadrach One of the experts, Sir John Marshall It was believed that the Indus Valley was such a Society was a place where everyone was equal. They felt that way because there Their houses were almost the same size. But Sir Motimer Wheeler thought the opposite. They thought Mohenjo-daro and Harappa This city was under some great king. Because of the large buildings there It looked like a palace to them. The debate among experts continues to this day. Even if we meet there Look at the graves, and you'll find none No valuable treasure has been found. This shows that there, the rich and the poor Discrimination was very low, and people They lived together as equals, harmoniously. In addition, the majority of the Indus Valley Not in big cities, but in small ones lived in villages where life and It was also equal and balanced. The script of the Indus Valley Civilization remains a major mystery to this day. It is Raj, engraved on the stone seals. Some signs do appear, but even today No one has understood their meaning. Some experts even say that Perhaps it was never a complete language to begin with. Rather, there were certain distinctive marks. Their religion We ourselves are not quite sure how this will turn out either. A man on some coins Show yourself sitting after giving a beating, who are you? There is a pasture and a garden. Some people It is considered to be the ancient form of Lord Shiva. But many experts believe this after I do not agree because of the worship of Shiva It had started very late. In the excavation, the soil Many statues have also been discovered, some of which Looking at it, it seems perhaps they are nature itself. They used to worship this goddess. Another It was a civilization that spanned a very large area. was spread. Yet the people there Your life with peace and equality They lived. The end of the Indus Valley. As soon as Mature Harpapa's call ended The glow of the Indus Valley fades into obscurity. A.D. 1300 to 1900 B.C. The era of delay, Harpapa Piriyat is called, in which large Big cities began to empty out gradually. It wasn't that everything happened all at once. It's over, rather some cities They gradually fell into ruin. In some parts of the city, people Remained, while the rest of the part Turned into ruins. This decline, this end, Many things are said while carrying it. It is an old theory about the Aryan invasion, According to which outsiders who came from outside Like human skeletons on some places So we met, but within the entire civilization. Large-scale warfare or devastation anywhere No evidence has been found. Therefore In today's era, those who are aware of this theory Not considered correct. The second and the most Major reason: Climate change, that is Changes in the weather are recognized. Research has revealed that during that period There were significant changes in the weather. Although the city has undergone these changes for many years Stayed there, but slowly, gradually The difficulties kept increasing. It seems like that. due to the challenges posed by the weather Living in cities had become difficult. That is why people are leaving cities They turned back toward the villages. Because the people of Gaun had changed The major cities of the Sindhu Valley had been completely destroyed. Around 800–700 BCE This entire area consists of small villages. I was staying right here in Simta. Even after the end of the Sindhu Valley Civilization The history of South Asia is not stagnant. Proceeding further, here cities will be settled again The round began, bringing forth new ones States arose, and Brahmins, Buddhists, Jain and Ajivika, such as Religions and ideas were born. We still do not fully know this today that the people of the Indus Valley actually Who were they, but we had their I have learned several surprising things about it. We have seen that they engage in agriculture and craftsmanship. Thousands in the case since their time They traded via the sea route. and the culture of the other They used to cherish it. The most important thing is this. that perhaps this was a society such as that Where everyone was equal and People preferred to live in peace. In the history of the world, the Indus Valley has given us Teaches how a society faced major changes And giving food to their people today Climb the heights of progress.
